Haye will most likely win, but Im hoping that Barrett sparks him. I dont make predictions anymore, I simply hedge my bets.Quote:

I thought Haye said he was weighing 227. Why the weight loss? Maybe he felt he performed better when he took off some of the fat, but as I recall, in those pics he was pretty ripped.
230 pounds I thought? Isn't that what he said he was?
It's a good weight for him, no point being something he isn't by putting on three stone then realising he can't move after three rounds with the extra dead weight.
That's a good weight for Haye. I'm glad he didn't bulk up too much for this fight.
I agree 215 is a good start weight, and we'll see how much speed and explosiveness he retains.. like Bomp said no use put on extra weight right now just to be blowing out his ass after 4 rounds.. Im sure by the time he fights Klit he will be up in the 225-230 mark, if the speed is still thereQuote:

How the hell did this become a Calzaghe thread?
Give it a rest kids.
I think Hayes weight is not a problem when it comes to his power if he lands that overhand right i think a man of anysize would feel it, i think to impose himself at that weight will be a problem especially against the Klits, i honestly cant see him imposing himself against them two, he will be blown away by them both imo.Quote:

I sthis fight being televised in the states?
He's definately got conrete blocks in his hands, but I'm not so sure that power will have the same effect of guys that are that much bigger than him. I will wait and see, but in the HW division weight is a huge factor as far as power goes.Quote:

I don't believe Haye's weight is an issue at all, some small heavies have done very well; Tyson (early), Holyfield, Byrd, Moorer, Ruiz (sadly), etc...The bigger question is whether or not Haye's frame can take the sustained punishment at the heavyweight level and if his chin can endure Heavyweight power as well...His skills and power will make him a threat in any fight, it's his chin that will need to be sound...
TP
One more thing lets not forget Haye hasn't got a bad chin he as been floored with head shots around temple area not by shots to the chin.
I remember when i used to say that about Amir Khan. ;DQuote:

I will say this, when Haye was 'hurt' against Mormeck he actually stood on the advertising board on the side of the ring and i think that's what made his legs appear to go funny like he was dancing. Funny thing was, he didn't even notice and in the post fight interview he said he lost control of his legs.
